Phantom of the Opera Scene?

Question

In the movie version of Phantom of the Opera, there is always a scene that confuses me. It's the very end scene, after Raoul sets that monkey music box on Christine's grave, and then see there is the infamous rose with a black ribbon tied around it with the ring.

Why, when Raoul sees the rose and ring, does the camera look off into the distance and just shows some random graves? is it actually showing something important?

(thank you to anyone who answers a serious and heplful answer!)

Answer 1

To me it meant that the Phantom was still around and had been devoted to Christine for all those years.

Answer 2

Answer 3

its nothing important. Its just a shot that they can fade out on instead of staring too long at the rose. Nothing important.  

Answer 4

The camera shot is just to make you wonder about the Phantom.  Is he still alive (obviously, from the rose and the ring), is he there watching for Raoul, etc.

Answer 5

The red rose is from the phantom so when it shows the other graves it shows that he is out there giving the rose because he loved her

Answer 6

That's one thing I really didn't like about the movie. In the book and play, the phantom died right after Christine left. In that scene, it was implying that the Phantom was still alive, which isn't how the book went.  

Answer 7
